Roman Catholics Troubled.

The edict of the pope forbidding

members of the Roman Catholic church
in this country to continue in the
secret mutual benefit orders is making
a large disturbance, says the New Ha-
ven Journal and Courier. It appears
that there are not less than 3,000,000
Catholics that carry endowments or in-
surance on their lives through the
secret orders already condemned, or
others that are pretty sure to fall under
the ban in the near future. The ma—
jority of these men are no longer
young, and their admission into any
of the old-line insurance companies
would be an impossibility. Many of
them have been carrying their insur-
ance through their respective societies
for decades, and the face value of the
policy is about all they have to leave
their widows or families when they are
called away. Under the edict of the
church, however, they are called upon
either to forfeit allegiance to their
alth, which involves a refusal of the
last sacraments or extreme unction in
their dying moments, or to forfeit their
insurance, With the knowledge that
after their death, want and privation
will be the lot of those they leave he-
liind them. .

Some of those who are deeply inter-
ested in this matter think that perhaps
the holy father issued his edict with-
out a full understanding of its import.
Western Roman Catholics are prepar-
ing to call a national conference of
those of their religious faith who may
be members of any one of the secret
benefit fraternities that were placed
under the ban, with the view of taking
steps toward securing a reconsidera-
tion of the edict and of putting in con—
cTSe shape a statement Of the great in-
justice that will be done if the proscrip,
tion is to be enforced as vigorously as
the action of many prelates in the Uni-
ted States would indicate.

Unclaimed Deposits.

The savings banks of the state are re-
quired by law to make a return to the
state comtroller in July of each year of
the amount of deposits in the banks
that have not been taken from or added
to. within the past twenty years. After
each return is made considerable money
is always drawn from the banks by the
people who deposited it or by their
heirs.

There are none on the books of the
Fairfield County Savings society, or of
the South Norwalk Savings Bank. The

'TTTTTT TTTT TMTTST

A Guerrilla Warfare Is Now on Be-
tween Settlers and Indians.

THE REDS WANT VBNGEANGE

[hey Regard the Killing of Prisoners
Who Attempted to Escape as Cold
Blooded Murder—Troops Sent
to the Scene of Trouble.

OMAHA, July 26.-—Gcneral Coppinger
has ordered all the troops of the Ninth
cavalry at Fort Washington to start at
once. '

POCATELLO, Ida, July fan—“Excite-
ment in the Jackson Hole country is at
fever heat. It is not safe 'for ranchmen to
leave their homes. The Indians are thor-
oughly aroused and are determined to
seek vengeance for the death of the In-
dians killed two weeks ago by deputy
constables. ” .

These were the words of Indian Agent
Tcter, who returned, sunburncd and worn
out, from a hard trip to the Jackson Hole
valley, where the Indian trouble is locat-
ed. He left the agcncy last Thursday, go-
ing to Market lake. From there he went
overland 120 miles in company with Dep-
uty Sherifi' ‘Hawley of Fremont county to
Marysvale, the postoifice at the south end
of Jackson Hole.

Speaking further of the present situa-
tion in the valley, Mr. Tetcr said: ”The
settlers are thoroughly alarmed, and they
surely have good reason to be. The In-
dians look upon the killing of their war—
riors as nothing short of murder and are
now undoubtedly preparing to avenge
‘ their deaths. There are no large camps
of Indians at present in Jackson Hole
proper, but I was reliably informed that
there are from 250 to 300 camped in the
Fall River valley, 35 miles south. There
are Indians, liovvever, scattered all through
the country, and it is not safe for white
men to go out alone. The Indians shoot
from ambush at every white man who
makes his appearance, and the whites have
adopted the same tactics toward the In-
dians.

Position of the Settlers.

“The settlers have congregated at sev-
eral points to protect themselves. I urged
them to prepare for an attack, out not to
assume the aggressive toward the wards
Of the government. The settlers are anx-
ious to go out after the Indians and wipe
them out. Both sides are now very deter-
mined.

“Thc settlers decided a. year ago that if
the Indians returned this summer they
would break up theircustom of hunting
in this locality. All the women are almost
distracted with fear, and as there are not
more than 200 settlers in the Jackson
Hole valley I considered it necessary to
send in the call for troops, which I did im-
mediately upon my arrival here. I‘ don’t
think the settlers are in immediate dan-
ger, but if the troops are not sent at once
they; will be. ”

Agent Tcter does not believe that the
troops will be of real assistance until they
are stationed right in the Jackson, Hole
valley at Marysvalc and in the country
just south of the National park. Mr. Tetcr
is inclined to criticise very severely the
party of deputy constables who shot so
hurriedly into the crowd of Indians who
tried to escape arrest. He says they are
responsible for all this trouble, and some
of them are already leaving the country
for fear of a. subsequent investigation by
federal officers. Mr. Tcter also says that
the Indians are not the only ones who
break the game laws, {116 that the white
settlers are equally as ad, and. the white
tourists and eastern hunters are much
worse than the rod men.

Indians \Vnrned of Soldier-5' Approach.

He says that in this Jackson Hole valley
it is estimated that there are at least 20,-
000 clks, many antelopes and some moose.
He Says these animals cannot be preserved
from extinction in the Yellowstone park,
and be firmly believes that the govern-

making the wonderful Jackson Hole val-
ley a part of the National park.

As soon as Mr. Teter ‘ arrived at the
agency trusted messengers were sent out
to all the absent Bannocks and Shoshones,
telling them that the soldiers were coming
and urging them to peacefully return
home by the time they arrived.

There is considerable speculation as to
whether this will have any effect, since
the Indians have become so worked up,
and as they must know that, located as
they are, in probably the wildest spot in
this country, the handful of soldiers that
will be sent out could hardly find them
before winter if they chose to keep out of
sight.

Word has been received at the Bannock

edged to be the most dangerous Indian on
the reservation, is at the Salt River valley
meeting of the Bannocks, Shoshones and
Utes with about 50 Of his followers. The
authorities are very anxious that these
disturbers shall not join the belligerents
congregated on Fall river. It is greatly
feared, however, that when the trading
and races are ended on Salt river these
Indians will go north and join the others.
If they do so, the combined force will
probably number 6-00 at least.

The Indians' Right to Hunt.
WASHING'T'mz. .Tw‘y 2 .—In connection
with the rig-T: i». -'...c Bannocks to hunt off
their reservation, the Indian office calls
attention to the following circular, first
issued in 1889, and sent to agents at in-
tervals ever since, whenever the occasion
seemed to require:
“To United States Indian Agents:

to this department that Indians are in the
habit of leaving their reservations for the
purpose of hunting; that they slaughter
game in large quantities in violation of
the laws of the state or territory in which
they reside, and that in many instances
large numbers of wild animals are killed
simply for their hides.

“In some cases Indians, by treaty stipu-
lations, have the guaranteed ri ht to
hunt, upon specified conditions, outside
their existing reservations. The secretary
of the interior has decided that the privi-
lege of hunting under such treaty provi-
sions is the right to merely kill such game
as may be necessary to supply the needs
of the Indians, and that the slaughter of
Wild animals in vast numbers for the hides
only and the abandonment of the carcasses
Without attempting to make use of them
is as much'a violation of the treaty as an
absolute prohibition on the part of the
United States against the exercise of such
privilege would be.
impressed upon the minds of the Indians. ”

MISS CORNELIAF. BA-ilibfs'OPT-NTON

Ofthe Sentinel Edition of the En‘

Editor of Sentinel. '

DEAR sz—In writing a letter' of
commendation of the Johnson Cyclo-
pedia it was not my intention to cast
any reflection upon “Britannica.”

I have owned and used almost daily
for years the Encyclopedia Britannica.
Its merits and worth are beyond ques-
tion. It is a vast storehouse of know-
ledge and a library in itself. Any-
one who buys this edition Of Britannica
which the Sentinel is offering for
$49.50, will make 'no mistake. They
will thus secure a rich treasure for a
small amount of money. .

In answer to your questions—Do you
consider a condensed Encyclopedia, in
any form of as much value as this new
edition of Britannica to a family who
owns but few books and who are un-'
able to buy books on all topics ?

I can say with Dr. Dunning that, in
my opinion the great majority of peo-
ple would undoubtedly find this new
edition of the Britannica to be the
most valuable investment.
